THIS CAN HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING, WHILE IDLING, OR THE POWER STEERING SIMPLY DOES NOT COME ON WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED. IT BEGAN IN 2015 AND CONTINUES TODAY, GROWING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE.

POWER STEERING FAILURE WHILE DRIVING--VERY DANGEROUS. IT IS AT THE SHOP NOW FOR POSSIBLE REPAIR DEPENDING ON COSTS. I'VE READ THAT THIS IS VERY COSTLY AND THAT THE ISSUE MAY BE AN ALREADY RECALL FIX.

WHILE DRIVING ON MCBRIDE AVE IN WEST PATERSON SUDDENLY THE POWER ASSIST ON THE STEERING WENT OUT AS I WAS TURNING IT WAS VERY VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN THE WHEEL VERY CLOSE TO CRASHING. I CHECKED MY VIN FOR RECALL I AM NOT ON THE LIST. THE CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND NOW I CANNOT USE IT AND THE REPAIR WOULD COST ME WELL OVER $1,000 THAT I DO NOT HAVE. THIS SHOULD BE AN OPEN RECALL FOR ANYBODY WHO HAS THIS PROBLEM BEFORE MORE PEOPLE DIE.

THIS CAR HAD MANY RECALLS THEY DID FIX THE ONE OF THE STEERING COLUMN AND IT WAS NEVER RIGHT MADE CLICKING AOUND I PURCHASED FROM SECOND PARTY WHO HAD IT DONE I FIXED THE TIRE ROD ON THAT SIDE IT NEVER FIXED THE PROBLEM NOW THE POWER STEERING MADE SOUND STARTED SHAKING THE STEERINV WHEEL AFTER THE FACT I KNOW THERE IS RECALL REGARDING THIS ISSUE OF POWER STEERING.

ON OR AROUND FEB 19, 2019 MY POWER STEERING GAVE OUT WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. I PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED MY CAR SINCE IT WAS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO TURN THE WHEEL. AFTER RESTARTING MY CAR SEEMED TO BE FINE. UNTIL IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE POWER STEERING LIGHT APPEARED ON MY DASH AND THEN AGAIN I COULD BARELY MAKE ANY TURNS WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE ESPECIALLY IF I HAD TO TURN TO GET TO A SAFE AREA TO RESTART MY CAR. AFTER MY OWN RESEARCH, I CALLED CHEVROLET AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON A SIMILAR PART THAT WOULD CAUSE THE SAME THINGS AS I WAS HAVING AND IF I TOOK IT INTO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND HAD IT OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED AS THE SAME ISSUE AS THE RECALL WHICH WAS A TORQUE SENSOR WITH THE POWER STEERING SHAFT I WOULD BE ABLE TO GET REIMBURSED FOR THE $110 DIAGNOSIS FEE AND THE COST OF REPAIRING THE VEHICLE. ON FEB 26 2019 IS WHEN I HAD MY APT AT CAMP CHEVROLET IN SPOKANE, WA PH:5094440968. THEY INFORMED ME THAT IN FACT IT WAS THE SAME PART AS THE PREVIOUS RECALL BUT BECAUSE MY CAR HAD ALREADY BEEN FIXED BY THAT RECALLED PART, BEFORE I OWED IT, THAT THEY WOULDN'T COVER THAT COST. I WOULD NOT OF TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IF I WASN'T INFORMED THAT WITH PROPER DIAGNOSE I WOULD BE ABLE FOR REIMBURSEMENT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND IT WAS NOT CAUSED BY ERRATIC DRIVING BUT A KNOWN ISSUE THAT WAS IDENTIFIED ENOUGH TO CAUSE THE RECALL IN THE FIRST PLACE.

STEERING WHEEL TWITCHES WHEN THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM ACTUALLY WORKS, BUT IN MOST CASES THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM WILL ALSO GO OUT AND QUIT WORKING AS I AM DRIVING MY VEHICLE CAUSING A SUDDEN JERK IN THE STEERING OF MY VEHICLE. Consumer stated sensor has been replaced twice now and power steering currently is not working again. This is a safety concern because power steering would randomly quit working while driving. Consumer found a similar recall for this issue on other year Chevy Malibu but for some reason consumer's model is not included in the recall, but is still having the same issue.

WHILE DRIVING UPHILL I HAVE NOTICED A DRASTIC DECREASE IN SPEED. THE CAR SEEMS TO CAP AT AROUND 45MPH, ALSO THE FUEL GAUGE LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF.

I WILL BE GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND IT WILL JUST STOP WORKING AND THE STEERING WHEEL WILL JERK TO THE RIGHT. IT GOES OFF WHEN YOUR SITTING STATIONERY OR EVEN TURNING ALSO. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO ANYONE WHO HAS A MALIBU NOT JUST SOME MALIBU'S WITH A SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER.

UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, THE GM RECALL SITE CAME UP WITH THE SAME YEAR, MAKE, MODEL AND EXACT CONDITION BUT AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP AND GM THEY STATED MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL.

RECALL NUMBER IS 14772 AND THE CONDITION IS STATED TO BE CAUSED BY A DEFECT WHERE VEHICLES EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST THAT COULD OCCUR AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING.
